Harvard Bioscience is a global developer, manufacturer and marketer of a broad range of specialized products, primarily scientific instruments and apparatus, used to improve life science research at pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, universities and government laboratories worldwide.

Harvard Apparatus was founded in 1901 by Dr. William T. Porter of the Harvard Medical School. Harvard Apparatus developed a name not only for quality but also for innovation. Harvard Apparatus invented the mechanical syringe pump in the 1950s and introduced the first microprocessor-controlled syringe pumps in the 1980s. Today, Harvard Apparatus continues this tradition with the most advanced, easy-to-use programmable syringe pumps, the PHD ULTRA and Elite touch screen series. Harvard Apparatus also developed first volume controlled- and then pressure-controlled ventilators, pulsatile blood pumps, transducers, amplifiers, recorders, glassware and many other specialized bioscience research products. Locations include U.S., U.K., Canada and France. www.harvardapparatus.com

The Leader in Specialized Bioresearch and Teaching Products

Harvard Apparatus Limited is a manufacturer of specialized physiological research equipment located in the United Kingdom. The company history can be traced back to the 1890’s when C.F. Palmer — a bicycle manufacturer in South East London — was asked to produce a recording device which became known as the kymograph. The company then grew and evolved as a life science manufacturer and was acquired by Harvard Apparatus in 1987. www.harvardapparatus.co.uk
